One problem with so many amateur licensees is their
imaginations leading them to believe (wrongly) that
their (defacto) hobby is a form of "national service"

Like I said, the Amateur Radio Service is a one-way
national service being offered *BY* the federal government
*TO* qualified members of the ARS. It is the federal
government that is serving amateur radio, not the other
way around.
